Despite the fact that the BBCRC is an all-volunteer organization which makes no money from the musical performances (the vast majority of which involve original music) that have taken place at our site, we were recently targeted by the music industry, specifically ASCAP, which demanded we pay them high fees for allegedly allowing songs to be played at our site that they claim to own. As a result the BBCRC has been forced to terminate our sponsorship of public music events. We hope that other organizations with the capacity to assure proper licensing are able to host music in our area in the future but this will not be organized by the BBCRC. We regret to have to take this step, it is not our choice. For more info on this situation feel free to contact us.
